Fortinet FortiGate-800 manual Clearing the Web URL block list, 294

URL blocking Web filtering

Note: Do not use regular expressions in the Web URL block list. You can use regular expressions in the Web Pattern Block list to create URL patterns to block. See “Configuring FortiGate Web pattern blocking” on page 296.

Note: You can type a top-level domain suffix (for example, “com” without the leading period) to block access to all URLs with this suffix.

Note: URL blocking does not block access to other services that users can access with a web browser. For example, URL blocking does not block access to ftp://ftp.badsite.com. Instead, you can use firewall policies to deny FTP connections.
